20 On that day the remnant of Israel (he wrestles with God) and the survivors of the house of Jacob (he grasps the heel) will no longer depend on him who struck them, but they will truly rely on the LORD {YHWH}, the Holy One of Israel. 21 A remnant will return \Shear-jashub/ a remnant of Jacob (he grasps the heel)—to the Mighty God. 22 Though your people, O Israel (he wrestles with God), be like the sand of the sea, only a remnant will return. Destruction has been decreed, overflowing with righteousness. 23 For the Lord GOD {Adonai YHWH} of Hosts will carry out the destruction decreed upon the whole land. 24 Therefore this is what the Lord GOD {Adonai YHWH} of Hosts says: “O My people who dwell in Zion, do not fear Assyria (a step), who strikes you with a rod and lifts his staff against you as the Egyptians (land of bondage) did. 25 For in just a little while My fury against you will subside, and My anger will turn to their destruction.” 26 And the LORD {YHWH} of Hosts will brandish a whip against them, as when He struck Midian (strife) at the rock of Oreb (raven). He will raise His staff over the sea, as He did in Egypt (land of bondage). 27 On that day the burden will be lifted from your shoulders, and the yoke from your neck. The yoke will be broken because your neck will be too large \broken because of fatness/. 28 Assyria has entered Aiath (heap of ruins) and passed through Migron (precipice), storing their supplies at Michmash (hidden). 29 They have crossed at the ford: “We will spend the night at Geba (hill).” Ramah trembles; Gibeah of Saul (desired) flees. 30 Cry aloud, O Daughter of Gallim (springs)! Listen, O Laishah (lion)! O wretched Anathoth (answers to prayer)! 31 Madmenah (dunghill) flees; the people of Gebim (cisterns) take refuge. 32 Yet today they will halt at Nob (high place), shaking a fist at the mount of Daughter Zion, at the hill of Jerusalem (city of peace). 33 Behold, the Lord GOD {YHWH} of Hosts will lop off the branches with terrifying power. The tall trees will be cut down, the lofty ones will be felled. 34 He will clear the forest thickets with an axe, and Lebanon (whiteness) will fall before the Mighty One.
